T.V. vs. Books

[seedsandsongs]

Hey y'all,


I was curious to see what everybody here is reading. It seems most people I know, around my age group, don't read at all. Whether it is poetry, farming or whatever...I would like to know. I am always looking to add to my library.

thanks,

SS

Sorry to bring up an old post.
I've got a library of sci-fi, western, DIY, WWII, VN, survival, medical, 4WD, comics, magazines, etc. Yet, my kids wouldn't read any of my books when they were growing up. If it wasn't on TV or a VHS tape, they could care less. Now my grandkids have to watch DVD, play PS2 or PC to enjoy themselves. I still belong to three book clubs, but I only order once in a great while. Used to be when I went to book store, I couldn't get out under $100. Now, I spend most of time online or playing Fate. I still read books before bedtime or just to relax when I get TB from PC.
But, there's great stuff on TV too. Watch almost every night.
